First off, I am not sure what these are actually called. I am looking for either a waterproof “bag” so I can swim while at the beach solo and not worry about my phone and money. Alternatively, I have heard that some people lock up their phones and money in a “safe” that attaches to a beach chair. In the past, I have stayed close enough to the beach to leave my phone in the room or just kept an eye while swimming. As I am not always near my room, I would like to find something that could be used at a beach. What have you used?
I bought a dry bag for kayaking that came with a waterproof pouch that has three closures/seal and folds.
Similar to this on Amazon. https://a.co/d/0difjyDH or this one https://a.co/d/00yFwkAq
Hi, thanks for your response. I am always concerned that those will leak if fully submerged. I have one similar to that (although the one in your link has more seals).
I think I was in water quick with it and it kept dry. I dove couple of times.
Maybe order one and test at home in bathtub.
I found the item I got but back in 2018! Maybe others better by now. The sleeve for phone was awful but belt pouch was good.

Thank you. Appreciate you taking the time to post the links.
I must add that I was paranoid first time I used it so I had my phone, passport and a credit card in a ziploc, then placed it inside the waterproof pouch. I went from a boat to a canoe and into a cave and then swam. If I recall, I had it crossbody and it sort of wanted to float. I wasn't jumping waves but on a calm small lagoon.
Hopefully someone else can give you more ideas to consider.
